Essays in housing and experimentation
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- This dissertation comprises of two chapters related to the effects of displacement due to foreclosure and firm entry and one chapter related to cluster-randomized experiments. In the first chapter, I show that the non-pecuniary costs of foreclosures are mainly borne by owners, while landlords suffer only financial costs and renters do not suffer much at all. In the second chapter, I test whether large firm entries can induce gentrification and find that on average, low-skilled incumbent renters have slightly negative to neutral outcomes while low-skilled owners have neutral to positive outcomes. In the third chapter, I examine issues that must be considered when running large scale parallel experiments at the individual and cluster levels of randomization
